Algiers, which is the capital city of Algeria located in the northwestern part of Africa and bears the same name as the country, welcomes its visitors in an epic atmosphere with blue-painted white houses. After centuries of living under the sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire, the city had become a dependency of the French. Although Algeria is among the independent countries today, the influence of French culture has remained active in the country.
French is as widely used as Arabic, which is the mother tongue of the country. The north part of the city is on the Mediterranean coast where you can reach Spain by sea. Another reason why the city looks like a European city rather than an African city is this route.
